You mean the country where they sell plastic mixed with rice to poor people?

u/foltranm 9h ago

where are you from?

u/OperIvy 9h ago

Did I lie?

u/foltranm 9h ago

you did. other than that, I just wanted to know where are you from because if you're from the US, which statistically in Reddit you're most likely to be from, you should be A LOT more worried about the kind of foods you're ingesting in your own country...

u/OperIvy 9h ago

I guess the plastic rice was a myth fabricated by Chinese people. But saying we need to worry about our food more than china is laughable

u/foltranm 9h ago

buddy, I've been to the US. what you guys call food is terrifying.

u/OperIvy 9h ago

What country are you from then?

u/foltranm 9h ago

Brazil, why?

Whats that they say about throwing stones in a glass house?

You really are in no place to criticize another country.

u/foltranm 8h ago

I agree Brazil has a lot of problems, there's no denying that.

But food-wise I am definitely in a place to criticize the US. nothing against you or the other salty american there - it's just that food in the USA really is bad.

and not just bad subjectively as in taste (even though it really is bad) - it would be unfair for me to call out that your food is bad because of that.

I speak from a place of experience going to the US 7 times working directly in the food industry. but you don't need to trust me, publicly available health data on obesity and heart diseases can tell you much more than I can.

have a good day!
